VH has developed as a catalytic force in Vietnam’s academic landscape, delivering critical

support to low-income students since its inception in 2002. By integrating economic scholarships with competency-developing projects, the organization addresses both immediate financial barriers and sustained developmental needs.

### Beginnings and Purpose https://viethope.com.vn/

Founded in 2002 by Vietnamese-American students at Harvard University, VietHope aimed to resolve systemic academic inequities in Vietnam.
